Services to start resuming again from now onwards, unsure on what service will be running. [MENTION=1416]Ernest[/MENTION] might know more.

Trains will be delayed though as train crew and stock will be out of place.

I think they are going to start to run some trains through the area, but until further notice services are still being diverted via Lewes.

Neighbour has just returned from the station where he was told to keep an eye out as to whether the service would run as normal tomorrow. Fingers crossed it will. No trains have yet come through preston park station. I know that as I live next to it.

If you see my post above, NR rail have promised a full service for tomorrow. Mind, if it rains again as planned on Thurs, we could be scr*w*d again.

A FCC service ran via Preston Park 10 minutes ago and another FCC has just left Brighton running North.

Yep, saw that post. Was just saying what my neighbour was told at the station about 15 mins ago.

Ooo, another one.

I wish it would bloody well rain. Was enjoying the peace and quiet.

Trains running through now but emergency timetable will remain in place which means few services running through , the xx06 and xx36 Victoria to Brighton will run direct now meaning even less football trains as these were booked to call at Falmer on the diversion

No chance of resuming Brighton - Lewes shuttles then ? Second thoughts, are they any staff available to run them ?

Looks like FCC are running half-hourly between Brighton and Bedford. Southern should be running half hourly between Victoria and Brighton too.

Only 3 trains an hour now between Brighton and Lewes now.
